The Curse of the Jade Scorpion is a 2001 film directed, written by, and starring Woody Allen. The cast also features Dan Aykroyd, Elizabeth Berkley, Helen Hunt, John Schuck, Wallace Shawn, David Ogden Stiers, and Charlize Theron. The plot concerns an insurance investigator and an efficiency expert that are both hypnotized by a crooked hypnotist into stealing jewels.
Had this film been released a few decades earlier it may have proven a greater box office success. The film received a "rotten" rating from film-review website Rotten Tomatoes and fared poorly in American theaters with ticket sales of less than seven million dollars [1].
With its production budget of $26 million dollars, it is Allen's most expensive film. According to boxofficemojo its worldwide gross was $18.9 million. [2]
